A few weeks ago, I took my first flight in a Cessna 172 Skyhawk during my local airport’s annual fly-in event. The moment the wheels lifted off the runway, I knew aviation was what I wanted to pursue as a career. Even though the flight lasted only 15 minutes, it became one of my most unforgettable experiences. Flying high above the landscape, I passed by a massive nuclear power plant and even caught an incredible view of the Philadelphia skyline stretching across the horizon. From takeoff to landing, every second of the flight made me even more excited about my future in aviation.
